Top 10 Articles of 2013
Before I get to my list, I just wanted to say: I hope you’ll be joining us tomorrow for my Online New Year’s Eve Party. It’s a party for anyone who is celebrating alone or at home. ScyFy is airing episodes of The Twilight Zone from 12/31/13 (8 am EST) to 01/02/14 (5 am EST). So far we have 23 guests attending on Facebook—people with chronic illnesses like Fibromyalgia, Lupus, Myasthenia Gravis, Primary Immune Deficiency Syndrome, Diabetes, Muscular Dystrophy, and Bipolar Disorder among other conditions. I’ve spent the past few New Year’s Eve celebrations alone at home in pain watching the TZ marathon. This year I’m so happy to be watching with other people—Fashionably ill is about community. I feel blessed to have connected with so many of my readers on this blog especially through Facebook and Twitter at https://twitter.com/JessicaGimeno.
Without further ado, here’s my New Year’s Eve countdown.
